We're big fans of Willow Smith here at For Harriet. For years, the teen has been making her mark as a spirited, intelligent Carefree Black Girl who's not afraid to dance to the beat of her own drum. In a world that is constantly trying to dim—if not straight-up extinguish—the shine of Black girls and women everywhere, we love that Willow is determined to be her authentic self and create music that represents that.
Her new song, "WEEPINGWILOUGH/LETSGOTOMECCA," available through SoundCloud, is everything we've come to expect from the lovely chanteuse. The track is a collaboration with friend and fellow talented young music artist, Crystal Mec. It features a mid-tempo electronic beat with layered, soulful lyrics about spirituality and nature. Talk about #BlackGirlExcellence!
Simply put: It's beautiful and we're digging it. Check out the track below!
